Cheerful and bouncy yes; but not to excess. It's probably hard to get away from that impression though, if you first introduction to Tigger is what Disney did to him.Jeanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02270303640902731044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4014696560401110515.post-85949233740088385372008-12-13T21:33:00.000-05:002008-12-13T21:33:00.000-05:00Nowadays Tigger is portrayed as ADHD.
